Kate Hudson rumored to be in talks to play porn icon in biopic

Kate Hudson is reportedly in talks to play porn icon Linda Lovelace in a new biopic.

The Hollywood actress, who is currently pregnant with her second child, is said to have been offered the title role in a film adaptation of Eric Danville’s book The Complete Linda Lovelace.

James Franco is in negotiations to play pornographer Chuck Traynor opposite Hudson, according to Deadline.com.

The movie will go up against a rival Lovelace project called “Inferno: A Linda Lovelace Story”, which initially saw Lindsay Lohan cast in the title role before she was replaced by Malin Akerman due to her ongoing personal problems.
